I cant find my favorites even though when I did the wizard set up they were imported
When I set up mozilla firefox it showed that it imported my favorites but I cant bring them up anywhere. I presume it is where the bookmark is and I followed one of the explanations on another help section but even after ticking what I was told to tick it wont show my favorites

You can usually find the imported IE Favorites in a folder ("From Internet Explorer") at the bottom of the Bookmarks Menu folder (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks).
If you have problems with importing the IE Favorites in Firefox then export the Favorites in IE to an HTML file and import that file in the Firefox Bookmarks Manager.
That way you also preserve any sorting that you may have done in IE with the Favorites.
- Export the favorites in IE to an HTML file (bookmarks.html): File > Import and Export
- Import the HTML file in Firefox: Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import HTML: From File
